Bad Guy
03:28
|
|||
I love you more than anyone else
But they say you always hurt the ones you love
But in this case, my conscience is clear
So I'm waiting on your apology
Oh, I know it's hard cause I've got scars
From holding my own tongue
But this all ends once you begin
To admit you were wrong
I'm not the bad guy here
I've laid the facts out and it's quite clear
I'm not the bad guy here
I've made mistakes but not with you, dear
Screaming will only weaken your case
And silence won't take the fight away
Let's talk it out like two grown adults
Except one adult is the one to blame
Oh, but I've seen fire shoot from your eyes
You made me feel so small
Forgive, forget once you admit
That you have started it all
I'm not the bad guy here
I've laid the facts out and it's quite clear
I'm not the bad guy here
I've made mistakes but not with you, dear

Take It Easy
03:48
|

There's a reason for everything, at least it's what I've heard
Pick yourself back up again, then apply what you have learned
But all these phrases I say to you are easier said than done
Cause disciplines get easier when it's not table for one
Just take it easy
Just take it easy
Just take it easy
Cause it ain't easy when you're on your own
Just take it easy, and then love should come
There's no words I can say to you to make it all OK
So I'll just put them in a melody to help you through the day
The chords are simple but I don't mind cause they're coming from the heart
I only hope that the sound of them can warm your lonely heart
Just take it easy
Just take it easy
Just take it easy
Cause it ain't easy when you're on your own
Just take it easy, and then love should come

Little town in black and white,
Just a single traffic light
Vacant to the left and the right
Race you on the count of three,
Wave at everyone you see
Ain't it such a beautiful sight?
Where you wanna go tonight,
why don't you just let me drive?
I will take you down to the farm
Baby, look up in the sky,
Ain't a thing that money buys,
Just enjoy the midwest charm
Where do you go when no body knows
Where you been and who you wanna be?
Come downtown, I'll show you around
Tell me if it's heaven you see
Summer swimming at the pool,
Sunday morning Sunday school
Throw the ball around in the yard
Windy roads without a line,
Dusty air at harvest time
Churches outnumber the bars
Take you to the county fair,
In the cool September air
Oh, the things that we're gonna see
Tractor pulls, elephant ears
I know it sounds a little weird
But man, it's home to me
Where do you go when no body knows
Where you been and who you wanna be?
Come downtown, I'll show you around
Tell me if it's heaven you see

Old Words
03:01
|
|||
I'm lost at sea
It's dark as dark can be
You say old words
The verses we've all heard
Old words are never enough
Cause I keep messing up
But that's me, I guess
"Have faith, there's hope"
Don't treat me like some dope
I'm flesh, I'm blood
I've felt the pain of love
Old words are never enough
Cause I keep messing up
Old words are never enough
Cause I keep messing up
So what, what's next
To grow my faith from text
No sir, not me
There's more than what you read
Old words are never enough
Cause I keep messing up
Old words are never enough
Cause I keep messing up
But that's me, I guess

Amazing Grace
02:08
|
|||
Amazing grace! (how sweet the sound)
That sav'd a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears reliev'd;
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believ'd!
Thro' many dangers, toils, and snares,
I have already come;
'Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.
